A fine engraving of the Colonies of America on thick heavy paper. With bold original hand color we see the primitive configuration from "Main" as it reached from the Atlantic to the St. Lawrence, down to a distorted sliver of a Georgia. All the English colonies are bounded by the "Apalaches" mountains, with some towns and native tribes laying beyond them. A large decorative title block names each of the colonies, all topped with the British crest.
